Total Calamity Robot Book 1.2- NEXUS

by Lucny Dauphin

  Kyo, silent, turns back around and walks to the edge of the building, and watched, as Arata gets back to his feet against the solar bots that have now landed in front of him. Arata pulls out his beam sword once more and limps forward. As the solar bots bolt towards him, Arata yells in anger and slashes two solar bots with ease, still limping forward to the main target. 3 more solar bots charge forward, but Arata swings his blade horizontally, cutting all 3 solar bots in half, continuing to limp forward, closer to the titan. The titan breathes heavily once more, as 4 more solar bots charge after Arata. Before Arata could perform once more, a large energy ball comes crashing at the last 4 solar bots, destroying them completely. Arata stops, as Harumi limps her way over to Arata. They both stood side by side, eyes hazy, body weakening, but still, standing strong against the powerful titan.

  “…Heh…we’re going to die here at long last, huh?” says Harumi.

  “…No…we can’t give up now…!” says Arata.

  The titan lets out its hellacious roar once more, but the Assassin Enforcers were unfazed by it. Debris floats around the Titan before the titan springs towards the weakened warriors. The two stood there and clearly, had no strength left to block, or even counter. It appeared time was up for them. All of their near-death missions would end here…

  “…Not calling for help…more soldiers to help…nothing…huh?” whispers Kyo. “…You two are something else. Sure badasses indeed…but it’s time you two be saved for once, rather than saving your own...It’s time I return the favor…!”

  Kyo leaps off of the building and places his two fingers on the wrist device...

  The Titan punches Arata in the face again, sending him crashing hard into a larger pile of debris from afar. The Titan quickly raises its arm up in the air above Harumi’s head. Harumi looked at the titan, body frozen while holding on to her right arm. The Titan was moments away from smashing its arm onto Harumi’s head.

  “Arata is in heavy critical condition and is now unresponsive!” shouts a female operator.

  “Fuck…! I can’t believe this…!” says an angry Kimiko, “Teleport them back to sickbay, now!”

  “They don’t have energy left in their Assassin Morphers to activate the teleporter! There’s no way to send them back now!” shouts another operator.

  Kimiko turns around and puts her hands above her head, clearly stressed as what’s about to come.

  Dammit…! They’re going to be killed…! thought Kimiko.

  “…We have a reading!! Someone is approaching the battlefield!!” shouts an operator.

  “What?!” shouts Kimiko, turning around, shocked at what she sees next…

  [Tojisa City]

  Harumi watches in shock to find a dark blue battle-armored soldier in front of her, raise its forearm above its head, and stop the titan from crashing its arm onto Harumi’s body. The titan looks down and sees the blue armored soldier’s piercing bright red eyes. The blue armored warrior kicks the titan to the stomach hard, pushing the titan back far and crashing into rubble.

  “…Who…?” whispers the words of Harumi before falling to the ground, laying there now unconscious. The blue armored warrior turns and looks down at Harumi’s damaged armor. The armored warrior shakes its head before turning its attention back to the titan and walking towards it…

  [Dynasty of Spheres H.Q./ Monitor Room]

  “Who is this person? I’ve never seen battle armor like that ever…!” says a shocked Kimiko.

  “The armored soldier is now approaching the target…!” says an operator.

  “…Harumi Watanabe is now unconscious and in major critical condition now…” says another operator.

  …I don’t know if you’re friend or foe…but please…save those two…! thought a worried Kimiko…

  Nexus

  The blue armored warrior reveals its face before the titan, and it was none other than Kyo Hayashi, under the armor. Kyo observes the titan pull itself out of the rubble and quickly charge towards him. Kyo puts back on his visor and charges at the titan.

  The titan throws a punch at Kyo, but Kyo easily dodges it and sends a powerful kick to the titan’s face, causing the Titan to go flying back and crashing into a building that now crumbles onto the titan when it makes an impact with it. Kyo stands there silent. Kyo removes his visor once more and looks at the scenery of destruction all around him.

  “…I feel…different…like I’ve always done this…” says Kyo, looking down at his hands, “…I’ve never felt so powerful in my life…!”

  “Hey…! Y-you…!” says a man.

  Kyo turns his head slowly and finds the injured and bloodied Arata walking slowly towards him.

  “…You…Arata Noshino…” says Kyo.

  “…Where…where’d you get that battle armor?!” shouts Arata.

  “…It appears you’re heavily injured. I advise you, and Harumi Watanabe to get out of my way before you two really die,” replies Kyo.

  “Don’t give me that shit, we’re fine!” shouts Arata.

  “Clearly you’re limping. Harumi must still be unconscious. I’m surprised you got to your feet. You’re quite the powerful soldier, but right now you two need to get out of here,” says Kyo.

  “She’ll be back on her feet in no time! I don’t know if Kimiko’s been hiding something or what, but if you’re an ally, go help the soldiers out of the rubble, as well as the civilians!” says Arata.

  “I’m warning you once, and only once. Take your comrade, and leave back to H.Q. If you don’t, I’ll do it by force,” says Kyo, turning his head forward and walking towards where he sent the titan flying. Arata looks on in shock but then grows angry watching Kyo fly off.

  “You…! Who the fuck do you think you are”-

  “Arata…he’s right,” says a female voice.

  A shocked Arata turns and finds Harumi limping towards him, with blood running down her face.

  “I agree with him…! I don’t know where the guy got that armor from…but right now we have to leave. We’re too hurt to keep going on like this. One more strike and we’re done for…” says Harumi.

  “…Damn it! How did it come to this! How the hell did that guy even get such a thing?!” shouts angry Arata before clenching his teeth, holding on to his left shoulder, clearly in pain.

  Harumi suddenly puts Arata’s left arm around her shoulder and pulls them both up off the ground. Kyo watches as Harumi slowly flies Arata out of the area.

  “…Good girl…” says Kyo, smirking.

  Moments later, as Harumi and Arata have left the scene, solar bots crash down around Kyo. Kyo puts his visor helmet back on, as his helmet’s eyes flash. The solar bots waste no time and charge after him.

  Suddenly, Kyo unveils two wrist-mounted long blue beam swords. Kyo swings his arms, easily slashing the solar bots to bits. More of them come after Kyo, but Kyo easily evades their attacks, slashing them all in the process with swift action. The Titan suddenly lets out a hellacious roar and bolts out the rubble, gunning for Kyo. As Kyo slashes down the last solar bot, Kyo wastes no time and opens his left hand forward towards the titan who’s running towards him fast.

  Kyo charges a large blue electrical energy ball, and before the titan could even pull its fist back, Kyo fires off the electrical blue energy ball. The electrical energy ball collides with the titan’s chest, causing it to go flying straight up in the air before it is engulfed in a massive fiery explosion. Kyo watches the large puff of black smoke in the sky silently…before he flies towards it.

  Kyo flies into the dark smoke and finds the titan quickly coming for him. The titan throws fast punches towards Kyo, but Kyo easily sways his body left to right, dodging the titan’s attacks. Kyo quickly sends his knee crashing against the titan’s chin, pushing it back. As the titan floats back with his head struck back, Kyo quickly floats forward and throws an impressive speedy amount of punches towar
ds the titan’s stomach. Kyo keeps going with the punches, to the point cracks appear all over the titan’s body. Kyo ends the rapid punching by uppercutting the Titan and finishing it by sending his left leg crashing against the titan’s skull, making it crash to the ground.

  Kyo quickly floats back down to the ground. As soon as Kyo’s feet hit the ground, the damaged titan charges after Kyo once more, letting out a hellacious roar. Kyo once again opens his left hand out forward towards the titan. Kyo stands there in this position, and as the titan gets closer and closer, Kyo’s eyes clench, before he unleashes a massive blue energy wave, engulfing the titan seconds before it could ram him.

  The massive energy wave deteriorates the titan for nothing. The energy wave disintegrates, and Kyo lowers his arm, finding the titan nowhere in sight. Only the more damaging effects the beam wave caused to the city. Kyo looks at the hand that unleashed the massive energy waves and chuckles.

  “…Heh…my destiny has now been chosen…!” says Kyo.

  “…H-…help…me…!” says an injured man.

  Kyo looks to his left to where the source of this man’s voice was. Kyo opens his right hand forward towards a pile of rubble and sends a blue energy shot out, causing debris to fly out everywhere. Underneath that rubble was a dynasty soldier, lying there weak. The Dynasty soldier slowly raises its head and finds Kyo there standing before him.

  “…W-whoa…! A new soldier…!” says the weakened Dynasty soldier.

  Kyo pulls the man off of the ground and gets him back to his feet. The soldier stands wobbling but steady.

  “…Are you a new member of the Assassin Enforcers…?” asks the soldier.

  “…No,” replies Kyo.

  “…No? Are you part of Dynasty or…?” says the confused soldier.

  “…No,” replies Kyo.

  “…Then what are you then?” questions the soldier.

  “…Call me, Nexus,” says Kyo.

  “…Nexus?” says the soldier in confusion.

  “I am the true connection to the broken land that is Galaxus…” says Kyo, “Brave soldier…if I were you…I’d leave Dynasty.”

  “Huh? Why’d you say that?” asked the soldier.

  “They aren’t doing you right. They don’t truly respect the sacrifice you put in. You all must rest, as I’ll be the protector of Galaxus now…” replies Kyo, with a serious look on his face behind the helmet.

  [Dynasty of Spheres H.Q./ Sickbay]

  Arata and Harumi are both in the medical room on their beds, covered in many bandages.

  “…Just what the hell is going on?! The same man that was acting foolishly to be Mr. Hero actually gets a battle armor…and saves the day?” says an angry Arata.

  “…Please, Arata, save your strength for something else…” says a weak Harumi.

  “Brother! We have to track down this man at all costs! Clearly, he isn’t associated with us, is he?” says Arata toward a man, wearing an all-black suit with many gold badges placed on the upper right side of his jacket. The man was tall and had quite a large muscular physique. He had long black spiky hair, black eyes, and a diamond ring on his right ring finger. Arata’s brother isn’t paying attention to Arata’s venting, watching the medics wheel in many injured soldiers.

  “…Motakai!” shouts Arata.

  “What do you want Arata?” says Motakai, turning to Arata with an irritated look on his face.

  “We have to track that guy down”-

  “Listen, don’t worry about that. Just be glad that he saved the both of you guys,” Replies Motakai, cutting Arata off.

  “But you will take care of this issue, correct?!” says Arata.

  “Of course we will. For now, though, he appears to be an ally, so we’re in safe hands. He took down the titan quite easily, as a matter of fact, showing amazing power,” Replies Motakai.

  “Amazing power…?” says a surprised Harumi. Arata, however, sucked his teeth at what he’s heard.

  “Indeed. Please, you have to rest for a while. The rest of the soldiers are now on a dispatch to save the other soldiers trapped under debris…as well as dead bodies. Thanks to that young guy the target is eliminated, and the solar bots are now gone. We can now proceed to save those injured. That’s all, coming from your chief,” says Motakai before walking out of the room.

  Kimiko, along with her operators, witnesses the massive land of Atlas be engulfed into a purple electrical field.

  “What the fuck…? This is bad…!” says Kimiko, putting her two fingers on her lips, observing the main monitor.

  “We can get no communication from Dynasty Atlas as well,” Says an operator.

  “…Man, these solar bots are coming down at us hard, and even a brand-new menacing bot appeared,” says another operator.

  “Yes…I can’t believe the Assassin Enforcers were literally close to dying…!” says a tearful female operator.

  “Then the hero comes out of nowhere and saves them. It appears he calls himself ‘Nexus.’ It’s weird, he vanished, and we lost him just like that after he spoke with the soldier,” says another female operator.

  “He is the connection to Galaxus. The sole protector…” thought Kimiko, “…Well Mr. Nexus…you’re going to have to do our work, for now, …since we need some serious work to do…maybe you can take over for a bit…”

  [Tojisa City]

  Sunset has now arrived. Kyo walks on his way home and is shocked to find Shina and his friends by his house. Kyo quickly lowers his right jacket sleeve to cover his wrist device.

  “Kyo, you’re alive!” shouts a tearful Shina, running over and hugging Kyo.

  “S-Shina…c’mon…” says an embarrassed Kyo.

  “Damn Kyo, we called you like a hundred times, what the fuck happened?!” shouts Shina, slapping Kyo on the head.

  “Ow! Don’t do that!” shouts Kyo, rubbing his head.

  “…Kyo, you look bruised up in some places,” says Zack.

  “Yeah…did you get caught in the crossfire or something?” says Zeke.

  “…Yeah, you can say that. My bike got fucked up too…” says Kyo, walking past his friends and heading towards his home.

  “Hey, did you hear? Atlas is doomed!” says Shina, following Kyo.

  “Yeah, plus more cities in Galaxus are completely torn down. Assassin Enforcers got wrecked and everything!” says Zack.

  “Yup…more proof our Dynasty of Spheres is shit,” Says Kyo, opening the door and walking inside with his friends following from behind.

  “And then there’s this new guy named Nexus,” says Shina.

  “…Nexus?” says Kyo, putting his backpack on the couch and heading towards the kitchen.

  “Yeah, he calls himself the sole protector of Galaxus and apparently isn’t associated with the Assassin Enforcers or even Dynasty. He’s like solo,” Replies Shina.

  “Is that right?” says Kyo with a smirk, pulling a bag of food out of the fridge.

  “Yup. Hey, let me get some!” says Shina, walking towards Kyo.

  “Hands off!” shouts Kyo, pushing Shina back.

  The two fight over the bag of food as Zack and Zeke relax on the couch. With such a chaotic day, the pair of friends finally relaxes lucky to be alive…

  Problem

  [Kyo Hayashi Residence]

  Kyo is in his room relaxing on his bed, viewing his laptop while also having the T.V. on. Quite a normal day to him after what’s transpired.

  “It’s now been a day since the tragic events of what’s transpired in Kamati, Tojisa, and even the land of Atlas. Atlas has now been encircled in a bubble, with purple fog inside of it. It is unclear what the state of Atlas is at the moment, as It is almost unrecognizable. It has been reported that the civilians of Atlas have been moved to an Underground Facility until the officials of Atlas take further action,” Reported the Reporter on the T.V.

  “Underground…? I neve
r knew Atlas had an Underground Base. To take everyone in that land underground is incredible…” says Kyo, moving his finger upon the touchpad.

  “Kamati has suffered 50% of total damage, while Tojisa suffered 70% of total damage. Soldiers and civilians are all pulling together to help pull those still trapped under the rubble. Motakai Noshino, Chief Army Executive of the Dynasty of Spheres Galaxus Region, held a conference earlier this morning to address the issues that transpired,” continues the reporter, “Here’s the clip,”

  “First, I want to say that Arata Noshino and Harumi Watanabe of the Assassin Enforcers are ok, but barely made it out. They encountered a strong mechanical solar bot alien that we’ve never seen before. That one alien was able to destroy most of Tojisa City alone. The two of them fought their hardest, but we’re nearly at the brink of death. Luckily, someone saved them and eliminated the major threat. This person here, who names himself ‘Nexus,’ is our hero,” says Motakai.

  A hologram monitor pops up next to Motakai, revealing the Nexus warrior attacking the solar bots and the titan.

  “Whoever you are Mr. Nexus, I want to tell you: Thank you. However, I ask that you, please turn yourself into the Dynasty of Spheres, or even contact us when you get a chance. You seem to not be affiliated with us at all, so we’re not sure if you’re an alien helping us, or a civilian who happens to have a great mind to build such a thing in your secret hideout. We would like to discuss matters with you into joining the Dynasty of Spheres and aiding us in the war against the Solars. If you’re watching this, please take this into consideration. As of now, Dynasty is still actively improving to make our land a stronger and safer place for everyone,” says Motakai.
